2005년에 자우림이 내놓은 '청춘예찬'은 참 재미있는 리메이크 앨범이다.
필 콜린스의 'Another Day in Paradise'와 데이빗 보위의 'Starman'은
원곡의 느낌이 많이 살아있으면서도 김윤아의 보컬 덕에 참신한 느낌이다.
'누구라도 그러하듯이'는 작정하고 락으로 바꿔 버렸다.
너바나의 'Penny Royal Tea'는 완전히 다른 곡이 되어 버렸다.
안그래도 어두운 곡인데 자우림 버전은 암울의 극치다.
자신들의 곡을 리메이크한 '새'도 마찬가지..
지미 헨드릭스나 펄 잼, 오지 오스본 같은 양반들이 모여있는데
마돈나의 'Take a Bow'는 좀 쌩뚱맞는 느낌이 들었지만 자우림 버전도 쬐끔은 에로틱하다.
좋아하는 가수는 뭔 짓을 해도 좋아보이는걸까..
자우림의 리메이크 앨범은 마냥 훌륭하다.
Didn't know what time it was the lights were low oh how
I leaned back on my radio oh oh
Some cat was layin' down some rock'n roll lotta soul, he said
Then the loud sound did seem to fade a ade
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase ha hase
That weren't no d.j. that was hazy cosmic jive
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie
I had to phone someone so I picked on you ho ho
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too! o o
Switch on the tv we may pick him up on channel two
Look out your window I can see his light a ight
If we can sparkle he may land tonight a ight
Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie
Starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me:
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
